Accent Funeral Home

Accent Funeral Home is a funeral home in Meridian, Idaho, located within the Old Town neighborhood and the North Main Street Historic District, serving Meridian and the surrounding communities. Services include burial services, cremation services, funeral and memorial services, pre-need planning, reception and catered events, kosher catering, ritual washing, and incense burning.

The funeral home was established in 1986 by E. Faye Buchanan. It operates from a Tudor-style building constructed in 1938 as a private residence for a local postman, which was remodeled to accommodate funeral home operations while preserving its original architectural character. In 1998, the business was purchased by Randy Arnzen and operated as a sole proprietorship. In 2002, Arnzen married Danette, also a licensed mortician, and the two have operated the funeral home together for nearly two decades.

The location includes a chapel and dedicated areas for identification and private viewings to support families during arrangements and services.

Accent Funeral Home does not operate an on-site cemetery or crematory and does not provide pet cremation, licensed grief therapy, or legal or estate planning services. Families frequently recognize individual staff members by name in reviews and describe being guided step-by-step through decisions and documentation.
